If you get a chance, try see The Simpson's episode from tonight "Boy Meets Curl". They learned to curl on a date night, and ended up going to Vancouver, and won against Sweden.
Hilarity in listening to every single stereotype of language between the kids when they first get to Canada.
Homer's description of curling near the beginning is priceless.

thanks, natalka, i'll do that in my extra spare time,,,,,,,

Gold Canada,
Our home and native land,
True, fast and free,
On hills we'll make a stand.

For his brother
He made the run,
Before all his family.

He made no faults,
He swiftly came
Our first gold!
How proud we'll be!

Merci, Alex!

I was watching when it happened. It was so exciting even though it was just the 3 of us at home. I was clapping and cheering. DD didn't know what was happening but she was clapping and cheering as well.
